    What is this, sad anti-help-to-ukraine propaganda disguised as “oh if only we did not spend so much on weapons” ?

    Outside of USA other nations somehow manage to have an army and all these things!

    While this is intended to be funny, it is really not because there is more than just a little truth to it. The MIC is more important to Amurica than anything else.

    Well, if investment into your defense does not sound right to you, try selling the front doors of your apartments and purchasing something useful for your home instead.

    I have to disagree here, because the US can easily afford everything listed here in addition to the fighter jet. The fighter jet isn’t responsible for a lack of spending in all these programs, it’s the Republican Party, which doesn’t want to see one cent of tax money go toward helping a poor person

    The only thing I see wrong is the job opportunity cuts, the US military is the largest make work program since the new deal and the WPA.
